Not really.
9. Did you get suspended/expelled?:
No, but I got detention TWICE, and was devastated! (Thanks, Mr. P!)
10. Can you sing the fight song?
I can sing "Our Lady of Good Counsel" (the alto line). It's not exactly a fight song... ;-)
11. Who was your favorite teacher?:

The Academy of Our Lady of Good Counsel High School

Yeah, I would. Lots of heartache, lots of pain, lots of learning, but it was good.

Are you kidding? We had no senior skip day!

Yep. ::sigh::

Timothy James Kelleher.
24. Are you going to your reunion?:
Don't think we're having one; Val tried, and nobody showed up. I've gone to a couple, but all of my friends have vanished into the ether (except that you can find a few clips of Laura on the Internet; I found a clip of her singing, and kept it. :-)
25. Who was your home room teacher?:
Mrs. Baker. In the Library (no, this is not a game of Clue)
